140 OLEACINA, CUBA. 



9. 0. CYANOZOARIA ' Gundl. ' Pfr. 



Vol. I, p. 22. This species often attains a larger size than 

 O. o. straminea in the same region, though not larger than 

 some straminea, from the Organ Mts. The last whorl has a 

 narrow, convex margin, sharply and very finely striated 

 across, below the suture; this margin is generally defined by 

 a furrow. The columella is very deeply concave, but some 

 straminea have it equally so. It reaches a length of 35 to 

 42 mm. 



Cuba : mountains of Trinidad, at San Juan de Letran 

 (Gundlach, 1856), and on the northwestern slope of La Vigia 

 (Pilsbry, 1904). 



Oleacina cyanozoaria Gundl., PFR., Malak. Bl., iv, p. 108, 

 1857; Novit. Conch., p. 317, pi. 77, f. 1, 2. 



I could not. find this snail at San Juan de Letran in 1904, 

 but took specimens on the mountain La Vigia, where adults 

 are 35 to 36 mm. long. Gundlach 's other locality, "Sitio 

 Quemado," is unknown to present residents of the region. 

 The type measured 40 x 13.3 mm. The largest, shell before 

 me measures, length 42.5, diam. 14.5, aperture 24 mm. 



10. 0. SOLIDULA (Pfeiffer). PI. 33, figs. 3, 4. 



The figures show a specimen which supplied the anatomical 

 figures on plates 35, 36, taken from under an old tie in the 

 yard of the Tunas and Sancti Spiritus Railway, in Sancti 

 Spiritus. It. measures, length 13.4, diam. 5, aperture 7 mm., 

 with 5^/2 whorls. The earlier whorls increase slowly and 

 regularly, the last 1% descend more rapidly. 



The species is found over a large part of Cuba, though not 

 everywhere. Neither Gundlach nor I found it around Trini- 

 dad, but it was taken everywhere else I collected in Havana, 

 Matanzas, Santa Clara, and Puerto Principe Provinces. 

 Specimens are also before me from Pinar del Rio and Santiago 

 Provinces, and the Isle of Pines. It is a common species at 

 Nassau, New r Providence, where I regard it as probably in- 

 troduced from Cuba, together with various other Cuban 

 snails. The type locality is Matanzas.
